the difference:
1. The regular ship departs from Shanghai on Wednesday and stops at the dedicated pier in Matson. The delivery time is very fast and the container delivery is also very fast.
After being unloaded, the Matson regular ship will immediately load containers of mixed commodities, frozen supplies, food, etc. and continue to Hawaii. This period belongs to their domestic transportation, so sufficient manpower will be arranged at the dedicated terminal to allow the Matson ship to arrive at the port. After that, unloading and loading are completed as quickly as possible. In the United States, the front and the frame are separated. Matson's regular ship can ensure that each frame is matched with the box and waits for the front to pull it. Under such a refined level of operation, the efficiency of Matson's regular ships cannot be replaced by anything else.
2. The overtime ship will sail from Shanghai on Thursday and park at a public pier (only a few may be arranged to park at a dedicated pier, provided that the ship must be registered in the United States, and all crew members on board must be American citizens) , also in Long Beach, with average shipping time, but still faster than shipping companies such as Zim, EXX, and Evergreen.
As mentioned above, regular ships still need to take their domestic routes, but overtime ships do not need to carry this domestic transportation. Due to the lack of labor, the unloading time will be slower.
How to distinguish
Look at the route code. The regular ship is CLX and the overtime ship is CLX+.
